I love Simon's animations myself too...... been playing way to much with it lately ! :icon_lol:

Alright, now where did I put that paintkit....
 
No hurry on that paint kit Francois, just haven't had a chance to load 'er up yet.

If I had my motorbike at home, I'd jump on it and bring you the file, but alas, it is still in France.
Oops, cancel that, it just started raining !! :icon_lol:

This is great news. Simon, I've been waiting for this piece of resistance. I will be purchasing toot sweet. Although I would really appreciate a layered PSD paintkit sir!!

Downloading as I type!!

First download attempt was corrupt. Will try again (***)

2nd attempt = thumbs up!
 
Foancois, you guys have hit this one right on the head. I have studied this plane for years, every inch of it, and all I can say is great job. Every thing is where its suppost to be, and great textures, Flys very well, great animation on the pilot and gunner, and really good frame rates. Thank you very much for this, one of my all time favorite planes!!!!
 
I have about two hours in it now. What a masterpiece! Granted that I fly in very calm skies but the thought occured that the Storch would make a great first aircraft to learn to fly in, at least in the sim. It's kinda like the legend of the Cub, it can only almost kill you. It's very forgiving, stable in calm air and just a joy to play with. Job very well done.

Well I've done some reading up on it but certainly haven't studied it to that degree. Glad my enthusiasm for it is echoed by people who know the plane! I'll add just one more thing, it's simply a BLAST to fly. Might be the first FS model in history that doesn't need a patch! :applause:
 
Thank you all! First of all for purchasing it, and secondly for your enthusiastic comments and very nice pictures. Couldn't have done it any better myself ... :icon_lol:

I am sure Simon will be very pleased with all your comments (I'll have to copy them and email him).

I will also remind him to send me the 'original' livery, the one with the swastika on the tail rudder, as it was painted in the war and as it is on the one in Florida. Due to legal issues we had to remove it from the plane that we advertise.

I will be working on the 'operations' in the months to come and I'll provide those as free downloads as soon as I can. But there are really busy times ahead with multiple FS projects in the pipeline...... apologies for the delay on those.

Thanks again everybody, we're thrilled with your praise !!! :wavey:
 
Merci beaucoup François and Simon.

The attention to details is just amazing ...
And I like the way that it flies also; made a short stop in a field and took off without a itch as the original users probably did...

Thanks also for the paintkit !
and for the flying manual which is a nice piece of work and presentation...
Read it through (doesn't happen often) just to get acquainted with the "Storch"...

Will be looking forward to the tail S.....a version as I like my planes to be historically correct...:kilroy:
My grandson couldn't care less...
He just wants to crash it ... :icon_lol:

Cheers ... :icon29:
